Knocking Our Socks ON

Irish Dancers have strong opinions on their shoes. But our socks are an equally important, but under discussed, aspect of our footwear! In this episode, we talk about the history of socks in Irish Dance, how we got to the beloved Poodle Sock, and review Irish Dance specific socks. Links to our favorite socks: Apolla Performace Socks: Amazing compression, support, and energy distribution! We tried the Performance Shock, the Joule, and the Infinite. Find them at www.apollaperformance.com and @apollaperformace Ahearne Shamrock Grips: We love the amazing support provided by the cutest shamrock grips on the bottom. They keep your feet from sliding around in your shoes; or allow you to dance shoesless without slipping. Find them at shamrockgrips.com and @ahearneshamrockgrips Turnout Socks: The perfect tool for providing visual cues on turnout! Comfortable, adorable, and helpful? Yes please! And they can be customized to include your school logo! Find them at www.turnoutsocks.com and @turnoursocks.
